Anders Lindegaard, Danish footballer
Anders Rozenkrantz Lindegaard (Danish: [ˈɑnɐs ˈle̝nəˌkɒˀ]; born 13 April 1984) is a Danish professional footballer who plays as a goalkeeper for Helsingborgs IF. He has earned five caps for the Denmark national team.
Lindegaard began his career with his hometown club, Odense Boldklub, but a lack of first-team opportunities led to a move to Norwegian club Aalesund in 2009, with whom he won the Norwegian Football Cup. After winning the Goalkeeper of the Year award in both Denmark and Norway in 2010, Lindegaard was signed by Manchester United, where he played for five years as a back-up to Edwin van der Sar and David de Gea. He moved to West Bromwich Albion in 2015, but was unable to break into the team and joined Preston North End in January 2016, initially on loan. He joined Burnley in September 2017.
Lindegaard represented Denmark at under-19 and under-20 level before making his senior debut on 7 September 2010 against Iceland.
